Send a Glaze Recipe Valentine to a Friend

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

You can email recipes from HyperGlaze very easily. If your friend has a copy of HyperGlaze, send the recipe as a HyperGlaze file that they can import right into HyperGlaze without having to retype it. If they don’t have a copy of HyperGlaze, you can still quickly send a recipe as email text. Here’s how to do both.

Let’s do the email text version first (also helpful for making those glaze handouts!).
Go to the recipe you want to export, and make sure you’re in the Glazes window. Choose ‘Copy Recipe as Text’ in the Edit menu, then make your choice of one of the three submenus: Recipe Only, Include Comments, Include UMF
Recipe Only just copies the basic recipe items. Include Comments gives you the full text of any comments you’ve entered along with the recipe. Include UMF copies all of the above and adds the Unity Molecular Formula to the end of the copied text.
Then just paste the recipe into your email or a word processor!

Sending a HyperGlaze formatted recipe is just as easy: Choose ‘Export as HyperGlaze file’ from the File menu of the Glazes page. You’ll be asked to save the exported Glaze file. After saving, you can attach it to an email and send it off to your HyperGlaze owner friends. If you have several recipes to share, first Mark them using Mark Card in the Glazes menu, then choose ‘Export Marked Cards as HyperGlaze file’ from the File menu. All marked recipes will be included in one HyperGlaze file that can be emailed and imported by your friends.
